Gillette Museum of Arthropod Diversity, Department of Bioagricultural Sciences and Pest Management Colorado State University, Fort Collins, CO 80523 Abstract A list of 1531 species ofLepidoptera is presented, collected over 15 years (1988 to 2002), in eleven southern West Virginia counties. A variety of collecting methods was used, including netting, light attracting, light trapping and pheromone trapping. The specimens were identified by the currently available pictorial sources and determination keys. Many were also sent to specialists for confirmation or identification. The majority of the data was from Kanawha County, reflecting the area of more intensive sampling effort by the senior author. This imbalance of data between Kanawha County and other counties should even out with further sampling of the area. Key Words: Appalachian Mountains, -
(Amsel, 1954) (Lepidoptera: Pyralidae, Phycitinae) – a New Species for the Croatian Pyraloid Moth Fauna, with an Updated Checklist

Nat. Croat., Vol. 30, No. 1, 37–52, 2021, Zagreb. From 2016 to 2020 numerous surveys were undertaken to improve the knowledge of the pyraloid moth fauna of Biokovo Nature Park. On August 27th, 2020 one specimen of Psorosa mediterranella (Amsel, 1954) from the family Pyralidae was collected on a small meadow (985 m a.s.l.) on Mt Biok- ovo. In this paper, the first data about the occurrence of this species in Croatia are presented. The previ- ous mention in the literature for Croatia was considered to be a misidentification of the past and has thus not been included in the checklist of Croatian pyraloid moth species. P. mediterranella was recorded for the first time in Croatia in recent investigations and, after other additions to the checklist have been counted, is the 396th species in the Croatian pyraloid moth fauna. An overview of the overall pyraloid moth fauna of Croatia is given in the updated species list.

Abstract: This study describes the results and collection practices for obtaining arthropod samples to be stud- ied as potential sources of new medicines in a bioprospecting effort. From 1994 to 1998, 1800 arthropod sam- ples of 6-10 g were collected in 21 sites of the Área de Conservación Guancaste (A.C.G) in Northwestern Costa Rica. The samples corresponded to 642 species distributed in 21 orders and 95 families. Most of the collections were obtained in the rainy season and in the tropical rainforest and dry forest of the ACG. Samples were obtained from a diversity of arthropod orders: 49.72% of the samples collected corresponded to Lepidoptera, 15.75% to Coleoptera, 13.33% to Hymenoptera, 11.43% to Orthoptera, 6.75% to Hemiptera, 3.20% to Homoptera and 7.89% to other groups. -

Osten Sachen. Introduction. For many years, in fact ever since the publication of the fourth volume of the Monographs on N. Am. Diptera (1868), it has been my intention to publish a Genera of the Tipulidae, consisting of a revföed reprint of whatever refers to genera in the above-named volume, with the addition of such new forms as I hoped to discover in different public and private collections. My hopes however were doomed to disappointment, as most of the european Museums which I visited offered very little material. The Tipulidae unfortunately still remain too much neglected by coUectors. Abandoning therefore my original plan, I concluded to publish without further delay some of the materials I had brought together towards its execution. In- complete and disconnected as these materials are they will be of use to those who, some time or other, will take up again the work of the Classification of the Tipulidae. I begin with the Tipulidae longipalpi, which I have not absolved in my monograph. The distinguishing characters between the Tipulidae longi- palpi and brevipalpi have been explained at length in the above- quoted volume of mine, p. -

Contributions Toward a Lepidoptera (Psychidae, Yponomeutidae, Sesiidae, Cossidae, Zygaenoidea, Thyrididae, Drepanoidea, Geometro
Contributions Toward a Lepidoptera (Psychidae, Yponomeutidae, Sesiidae, Cossidae, Zygaenoidea, Thyrididae, Drepanoidea, Geometroidea, Mimalonoidea, Bombycoidea, Sphingoidea, & Noctuoidea) Biodiversity Inventory of the University of Florida Natural Area Teaching Lab Hugo L. Kons Jr. Last Update: June 2001 Abstract A systematic check list of 489 species of Lepidoptera collected in the University of Florida Natural Area Teaching Lab is presented, including 464 species in the superfamilies Drepanoidea, Geometroidea, Mimalonoidea, Bombycoidea, Sphingoidea, and Noctuoidea. Taxa recorded in Psychidae, Yponomeutidae, Sesiidae, Cossidae, Zygaenoidea, and Thyrididae are also included. Moth taxa were collected at ultraviolet lights, bait, introduced Bahiagrass (Paspalum notatum), and by netting specimens. A list of taxa recorded feeding on P. notatum is presented. Introduction The University of Florida Natural Area Teaching Laboratory (NATL) contains 40 acres of natural habitats maintained for scientific research, conservation, and teaching purposes. Habitat types present include hammock, upland pine, disturbed open field, cat tail marsh, and shallow pond. An active management plan has been developed for this area, including prescribed burning to restore the upland pine community and establishment of plots to study succession (http://csssrvr.entnem.ufl.edu/~walker/natl.htm). The site is a popular collecting locality for student and scientific collections. The author has done extensive collecting and field work at NATL, and two previous reports have resulted from this work, including: a biodiversity inventory of the butterflies (Lepidoptera: Hesperioidea & Papilionoidea) of NATL (Kons 1999), and an ecological study of Hermeuptychia hermes (F.) and Megisto cymela (Cram.) in NATL habitats (Kons 1998). Other workers have posted NATL check lists for Ichneumonidae, Sphecidae, Tettigoniidae, and Gryllidae (http://csssrvr.entnem.ufl.edu/~walker/insect.htm). -

A SYNOPSIS OF PART OF THE NEOTROPICAL CRANE-FLIES OF THE SUBFAMH^Y LIMNOBIN^. By Charles P. Alexander, Of the Entomological Lahoratory of Cornell University, Ithaca, New York. INTRODUCTION. The present paper is the partial result of the study of some exten- sive collections of tropical American Tipulidse or crane-flies. In this paper the tribes Eriopterini and Limnophilini are included. A second part will include the tribes Limnobini, Antochini, and Hexa- tommi, completing the Limnobinse, and a third will treat of the Tipulmse. In this paper the term Neotropical is used as synon^^mous with the Neogsea (m part), of Sclater (1858) and the Dendrogjea of Sclater (1874). It mcludes South America and the adjacent Falkland, South Georgia, Juan Fernandez, and Galapagoes Islands; the West Indies, or Antilles; Central America, Mexico, and the extreme southern portions of Florida and Texas. Besides describing all new forms and redescribing such species as are inadequately handled in previous descriptions, I have thought it might be of some value to future students to include keys to the genera and species of the regional forms. It should be understood, however, that the difficulties m the way of such an attempt are such as to almost discourage one from undertaking it. One must remem- ber that a very considerable number of the species have never been rediscovered since then- origmal description; many of these descrip- tions are brief, vague, and altogether unsatisfactory. Those of Fabricius would be as bad as those of Walker if it were not for the work of Wiedemann, who had access to the Fabrician types. -

Abstract : Human consumption of insects or « lepidopterophagy » is becoming increasingly important. In the present paper 370 references dealing with this subject in Africa are quoted. Access to this information is provided both, by chronological and alphabetic order of authors. A systematic list of scientific names of edible Lepidoptera in Africa is also provided. The importance of the information available for various ethnolinguidstic groups is presented. The evolution of issues covered is analyzed and discussed. Keywords : Consumption, Lepidoptera, Africa, Campeophagy. INTRODUCTION The utilization of insects as a sustainable and secure source of animal-based food for the human diet has continued to increase in popularity in recent years (SHOCKLEY & DOSSEY, 2014). In particular, human consumption of Lepidoptera receives an increasing interest (MALAISSE et al., 2015). Several terms have been suggested to describe this consumption, notably regarding caterpillars, “campeophagy” (MALAISSE, 2002, 2004; MALAISSE et al. -
